Answer 1

Welcome to Wikitree! 

If you are interested in the Cherokee or are looking for Cherokee ancestors, here are some Wikitree pages you might find helpful:

As you can see on the profile of Sarah Seabolt there is no documentation to support claims that she was Cherokee.  The Seabolts are found in numerous contemporaneous records as white;  Abraham appears on 1830 and 1831 lists of white men with permits to live in the Cherokee Nation with a wife and three children, on an 1834 census of the free white population of Lumpkin County with a family of ten, and on the 1838 census of Lumpkin County with a family of 12. 

Answer 2

I would like to invite you to stop in at the Paulding County Genealogical Society. They are open Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9-2-ish. Can be open later if needed. They have several books about the Cherokee in Georgia in their reference room.

Answer 3

You might check out the Flower Name Study; not my study.  In my family, the Flower/Flowers surname are one and the same.  I have a Flowers line in NYS.
